Let’s put the Jank hate aside and take care of our crosstown, ugly step brother.

SMU - 68
froggies - 65

So LA, if winning or losing this game was the difference in keeping or firing Jank, would you still be rooting for SMU?

Not sure as I've been out of the country but I think even with foster in the lineup, we are still going to need luck to be competitive.

Can I have door three??

I always want us to win, especially against the hated frogs but we can all see where this is going. I would say this game is important for recruiting alone but we don’t recruit against TCU for players anymore. I’m so sick of Jank’s excuses and his C-USA thinking. The examples of mismanagement, ineptitude and failure over the past 18 months under Jank is simply mind-blowing. If we want to save this thing, a move has to be made sooner than later. So.....

Since they both lost to Lipscomb I predict a tie.

We can't get stops late, just like the other games we lost. TCU pulls away at the end and wins 79-70.

Either way, this game won't have any impact on Jank's job security. We are either in the tourney or we aren't.

Kind of my thought.

I don't think TCU comes in and whips us. I think we will have a chance to win the game, but will needs to get some late stops, boards, and make some late shots to do so.... we will see.

I hope regardless of anyones feelings about the staff they are at the game and cheering for the ponies. The players deserve that.

The Frogs have also had a series of pansy games similar to our schedule. I think the
biggest predictors of the game will be that each played Lipscomb and also ORU.
I believe our guys are improving with every game. We have the home court advantage.
And, the Frogs haven't played on the road yet this year. I think our guys will be up for this game and we win 75-68.

I wouldn’t be so sure about that. A TCU Moody takeover is there for the taking. We already have the late start excuse in our back pocket.....

“A profound affect”? As we used to say where I grew up, “you got your teetee wet and now you think you’re a man.”

SMU wins this by 5. 69-63.
